New double take up

S S The motorised double take up from PS Costruzioni

Reel loading/unloading system: With the pintles at a fixed height, the loading/unloading of the spool takes place by means of a steel plate (motorised platform), driven by a screw nut connected with an AC motor and an inverter. Wire guide: A single automatic wire-guide is placed in the upper part of this unit. It is driven by a brushless motor in a digital electrical axis with the take up motor. Thanks to this system, the quality of the cable layer upon layer is excellent. Hydraulic cutter and caterpillar: Both these units are placed on a holder wire-cable plate. As the pre-set length has been reached, the cable gets automatically cut and carried on, up to the wire-guide rolls. By doing so, the operator finds the cable ready for being hooked to a new spool. Console and control cabinet: Containing all instruments to operate either manually or automatically; a PC colour Touch screen to easily read set parameters and a keyboard to key in. The command electrical system is made by PLC S7 controls.

PS Costruzioni Meccaniche has recently designed and manufactured a new machine – the Motorised Double Take Up – which is suitable for the following cables: • Insulated flexible cables and multi wire cables from 5mm up to 35mm • Insulated flexible cables and multi wire cables having a cross section from 4mm up to 150mm 2 • Flat cables from 5mm x 2.5mm up to 35mm x 6.5mm with a cross section up to 150mm 2 This machine can wind up several cable lengths, according to the cable diameter as well as the spool dimensions (for a length up to 500m or more). Maximum linear speed is up to 250m/min.

Spools range to be used with the double take up include:

• Spool flange max diameter: 1,000mm • Spool flange min diameter: 284mm

• Spool max width: 535mm • Spool min width: 260mm • Spool max weight: 1,500kg
